STOP PRESS

"The curse and the aim of doing great sound is not being noticed."

The best sound becomes a seamless part of the film, allowing the audience to get swept away by the movie experience.
Many films featuring sound by LCR have gone on to great success. Please check here for updates on what some of our films are up to after they've left the studio.
